Title: Will these bearings work for a sporty front end?
Post by wickedbiker on 02/28/14 at 23:50:19

I have not found a set of raked trees for the savage to save my life, but I found these bearing on eBay apparently they take a 1" stem is it possible to use raked trees for a Harley using these to convert?

Funny that the add says Suzuki but all the bikes pictured are yamaha's. I'd call and make sure....

Don't mean to hijack the thread just let me know to go elsewhere, but what do i need to know about swapping front ends? I have a DNA springer on another bike that I'm thinking of swapping out to the savage, but haven't learned anything rehardibg it yet.
Are there basic measurements like a tire? or Is it all over the place?
Please save me some time in research...

"rehardibg"

I think that is what you get when you type "regarding".....and you have some fingers that become uncooperative.
